As so many people experience, my work related stress is sometimes unbearable. I realized JUST NOW... that my mind is not thinking of comfort food but I was thinking about my walk tonight and how I cant wait.....feels soooooo good. That is not to say that I don't/wont seek the comfort of food but my first thoughts are no longer "what can I eat".....27

I have 2 NSVs today. Yesterday I bought a pair of size 16W shorts and they fit really nicely. Given that I was a size 20-22 just 9 weeks ago, I'm thrilled. Also, I found a new scrub top that I bought over 5 years ago (a size smaller than what I really was) in hopes of loosing enough weight to fit me. That didn't happen until today. It's actually a bit loose. Yes, I'm wearing it right now.30

I benched 135lbs yesterday. It had been a year long goal since I started with a bench of 95lbs. It also looks super badass with the big plates on there so I was stoked all day yesterday.23

Thank you! my iPhone is always on silent. I'll try to remember that tomorrow when I do Day 2 tomorrow.5 -
So, I'm teaching summer school and today during whole group reading in the middle of me reading a story this little boy grabs my calf and says "OMG her legs are ALL MUSCLES!" which obviously interrupted what we were doing and got the class going, which was quickly stopped. Then after the kids left I got to thinking and touched my calf. What was once all fat is actually mostly muscles and my legs actually look toned now. So thank you little second grader for randomly interrupting our lesson and making me realize this.40

I bought my wedding dress back in Nov 2016 and it fit me perfect. Over the last 6 months I gained 15lbs or so due to some high stress situations. Tried it on end of May and I couldnt even get the zipper up So went back a month later today and it fit almost perfect again!!! Felt so good to get that zipper back up. Only 8lbs to go!!!! 2 months and I get married eek33

Tonight I ran a 5.7 mile trail race faster than my fastest time, which happened 5 years ago when I was in the best shape of my life and before I got pregnant with my first child! The next fastest group of 2 women were 21 sec/mile faster than me, but just a few weeks ago they were 44 sec/mile faster. I've only been back running two months, so I'm hopeful for a continuing speed trend. Goals: trail race under 7:30 min/mile by Aug 1 (today was 7:36), and to finish higher than fourth place (I seem to get fourth every week).19

Night eating is a big problem for me. Well last night I stayed up past everybody else and did dishes - in the kitchen the whole time - and I didn't eat a thing! When I started feeling hungry I drank water, and when that stopped helping I went to bed. I was really worried my resolve would break but look at that! I'm developing better self control (or getting over my emotional need to eat?)!

I know this feeling minus the losing weight part. It was such a horrible feeling when I quit smoking after I bought my wedding dress. It went from having to be shrunk down to be taken out so much that eventually they had to put ties in the back. That was one of my causes for losing weight the first time. But I didn't lose weight in time for the wedding. Congratulations to you!!

That is such a good feeling! Big girl plates! AWESOME!9 -
Decided to up things a bit this week as I've been less busy at work, so in addition to my PT sessions, my time in the gym on my own, and pilates class I joined a couple of classes, and despite being the oldest in the class by about 30 years I more than held my own, in fact I was one of the fittest in the class.26

I can feel ribs and see my collarbone!24

Had a long physically and emotionally stressful day. When I finally got the kids down and kitchen cleaned at 8:45, I didn't get a glass of wine (though I had the calories for one). Instead I went for a quiet walk outside. Alone. Much better.26

I ate Oreos! Just one serving, and I enjoyed every bit of them. Oreos have always been one of those foods that I just *can't* moderate, but I was having a weak day at the grocery store last weekend and couldn't resist a BOGO sale. I picked my favorite (classic) flavor and a new one. So, they've been in my house since Sunday and I tried the new flavor that day and didn't care for it all that much, so it was no problem to put it away after 2 cookies. I didn't think about the classics for the first day, and then on Monday, I thought about them but saw that I was pretty high in kcals that day, so I decided to defer and it wasn't a big deal. Last night I had plenty of room in my allowance and wanted them - so I ate them and stuck to one serving and was satisfied. This is a HUGE accomplishment, coming from a place where I would eat handfuls of cookies at a time and finish the entire bag in 2 or 3 days.33

I slept like crap last night. People kept talking to me at summer camp drop off, for almost 15 mins. I think I hit every red light between camp and the gym. I sat on the bike and started pedaling and the damn thing shut down. By this time I was ready to quit, as the universe clearly didn't want me to work out today.
I got on a different bike and did my 45 mins anyway.35 -
I was feeling really off on Monday myself, tired and cranky and low energy (NOT shark week), but I brought my bag and forced myself to go to the gym. I didn't try to up any of my weights or anything, I just did what I did last time, and I was proud of myself for getting in there and doing it anyway.24

14 mile trail run today. My back injury is finally really starting to heal, so I can get back to being awesome again!25
